Tungsten Properties\u2019 new \u00a320m commercial scheme in Filton promises eco builds and new jobs<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Tungsten Properties has acquired a 4.6-acre industrial site in Filton, Bristol for \u00a35 million, as part of plans to deliver nearly 100,000 sq ft of new commercial space in partnership with Euro Property Investments Limited.<\/p>\n

The site, located off Hayes Way in Patchway South, sits adjacent to the historic Filton<\/a> Airfield and just two miles from the M5 motorway. A planning application has already been submitted to South Gloucestershire<\/a> Council for a five-unit scheme totalling 94,000 sq ft across two terraces, with unit sizes ranging from 10,000 to 30,000 sq ft.<\/p>\n

The new scheme aims to meet BREEAM Excellent and EPC A standards and deliver a 10% biodiversity net gain. Plans include units standing at 9.3 metres to haunch height, equipped with 800 KVA of power distributed across the buildings. Ten per cent of parking spaces will be fitted with electric vehicle chargers, with a further 50% of spaces marked as \u2018EV ready\u2019.<\/p>\n

The area is already a key employment hub, with nearby occupiers including Aerospace Bristol<\/a>, GKN Aerospace, Lidl<\/a>, Royal Mail<\/a>, Rolls-Royce<\/a> and Village Hotel Bristol.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Tungsten Properties forecasts that the \u00a320 million development will create approximately 100 construction jobs. Once complete, the scheme is expected to support up to 100 long-term employment opportunities, contributing an estimated \u00a325 million in gross value added annually to the local economy.<\/p>\n

Ian Dunckley, development director at Tungsten Properties, said: \u201cOur purchase of this strategic Filton site will offer much-needed industrial and logistics mid-box space to Bristol to support SME and larger company growth.<\/p>\n

“Our development and investment will mean that we can bring our mid-box expertise to provide vital space for companies to grow and help to retain high value jobs in the area.\u201d<\/p>\n

Construction is expected to start in the third quarter of 2025, subject to planning approval, with completion scheduled for the second quarter of 2026.<\/p>\n

Commercial real estate advisors Knight Frank<\/a> acted on behalf of Tungsten Properties, with Hartnell Taylor Cook<\/a> representing ARC Group, the site\u2019s previous owner. Both Knight Frank and Hartnell Taylor Cook are the appointed leasing agents for the new scheme.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tungsten Properties\u2019 new \u00a320m commercial scheme in Filton promises eco builds and new jobs 14:03, 14 May 2025Updated…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":100892,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8818],"tags":[381,748,393,10300,4884,3040,10299,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-100891","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-bristol","8":"tag-bristol","9":"tag-britain","10":"tag-england","11":"tag-filton","12":"tag-great-britain","13":"tag-royal-mail","14":"tag-south-gloucestershire","15":"tag-uk","16":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114506453721739416","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/100891","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=100891"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/100891\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/100892"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=100891"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=100891"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=100891"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
